AGA-1 AUTO-GUIDE ADAPTER
AGA-1 detects the deviation of the guide star imaged through a CCD
video camera, and allows the motor drive system to correct it
automatically. Thus this instrument helps to make guide correction
easier for astrophotography.
AGA-1 can be used with STAR BOOK, or STAR BOOK-S (for GP2,
GPD2). It will be necessary to change your setting in STARBOOK If
AGA-1 is connected with STARBOOK. Please read the manual
attached to SX/SXD equatorial mount (Autoguider section) for details.
